I'm studying Japanese right now, and I'm learning man and oku in counting. It got me curious if the Japanese use commas in different locations than we do in English, so I searched online. I came across this article ( https://japantoday.com/category/features/lifestyle/10-000-or-1-0000-japanese-schools-are-starting-to-move-commas-on-big-numbers-but-why ) saying schools were starting to teach commas like 1,0000 for ichiman and so on, which seems much more logical to me. This article was from 2018, so I was curious if anyone knows if this ever caught on in Japan, or if it fell by the wayside? Thanks!
